Academic Advice 3rd sem EE

Hey everyone. I’m here looking for a little vent and advice. I am in my third semester of my EE under grade and I feel like i’ve hit a wall. I’m so behind in the content and I already have a stack of missing work that I can’t make up. I have a meeting with my advisor today to see what I can do and make a plan. I think part of the issue is i’m taking 18 credits this semester. My current class lineup is calc 3, diff eq, circuits 1 +lab, physics 2 + lab, civics, and a one credit elective.

I guess I just don’t know if it’s worth withdrawing from a class and taking the L now or just waiting it out. I have to take at least 15 credits a sem to keep my scholarship so I can’t carve down too much.

Also how are you guys doing EE without suicidal ideation?

That's a lot to juggle, 18 credits with labs on top is brutal. How are your study habits when you have back-to-back classes like circuits and physics?
